My Good Ole Country
My podcast will feature traditional country music the way it was in the 50's, 60's and 70's along with my personal stories about the artists who I appeared with on tour and at the Grande Ole Opry. I've even got music from as far back as the 40's. I have created the podcast through my "Not For Profit Foundation", Wounded Warriors Weekend Foundation Inc. in order to promote awareness regarding the challenges our veterans face regarding PTSD.
